J., Bell, E. R., Romero, S. L., & Carter, T. M. (2012). Preschool interactive peer play mediates problem behavior and learning for low-income children. Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology, 33(1), 53–65.] Citation [Bulotsky-Shearer et al., 2012] Hypothesis [The researchers hypothesized that interactive peer play in preschool would mediate the relationship between poverty and problem behavior and learning outcomes for lowincome children.] Variables [IV – Poverty; DV – Problem behavior and learning outcomes in preschool children] Link [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.appdev.2011.09.003 Abstract [This research investigates whether interactive peer play serves as a mediator between poverty and problem behavior and learning outcomes of preschool children. Participants were 379 Head Start preschool children (data age = 4.3 yrs, SD = 0.33; 56% girls, 42% African American). Peer play and poverty were evaluated by direct observation within the classrooms, whereas problem behavior and learning outcomes were evaluated by teacher report. The results showed that interactive peer play served as a powerful mediator between poverty and problem behavior as well as learning outcomes in a preschool child.] Summary/Quotes [It was found by the researchers that poverty was linked to higher problem behaviors and lowered learning outcomes for low-income preschool children. Nevertheless, interactive peer play served as a mediator of this association indicating that children who participated in more interactive play with their peers had less problem behaviors and better learning outcomes in spite of their deprivation background. The researchers argue, “The set findings indicate that social peer play should be promoted as a protective factor in preschool for preventing the negative effects of poverty on the child’s development” (Bulotsky-Shearer et al., 2012).] Utility [This article is very much related to my topic and hypothesis as it particularly focuses on the mediating role of interactive peer play in the link between poverty and child outcomes. The sample is also alike to my suggested sample of low-income children in a preschool environment. I shall also think about utilizing the measurement of interactive peer play in my own study and citing this article as evidence of the need to foster social interaction among poor children.] ] Annotation #2 Reference [Caballero, A., Muñoz, D., Carrera, P., Fernández, I., & Aguilar, P.

The participants were 229 low-income participants (M age = 35.53) who assessed measures of economic scarcity, construal level, and risk-taking behavior. Findings demonstrated that economic scarcity is positively related with concrete construal level, and concrete construal level is also positively linked with risktaking behaviors.] Summary/Quotes [The study revealed that the economic scarcity lead to the concrete construal level in an individual where such people think in the short-noticed manner and are less likely to think about the future consequence. This was also associated with increased levels of risky acts. As the authors argue, “Our findings suggest that experiencing economic scarcity is related to a different and potentially harmful mind set, which in turn increases the probability of engaging in risky behaviors” (Caballero et al., 2023).] Utility [This article offers an interesting look at the possible effects of poverty on cognition and decision-making. Relevance of the sample is that it is lowincome people which is a good for my own research since the measurement of concrete construal level may be handy. This study can also be cited to buttress the notion that poverty can be harmful to different aspects of functioning.] Annotation #3 Reference [Duarte, R., Ferrando-Latorre, S., & Molina, J. A.

Findings revealed a positive and large intergenerational correlation in education , where parents’ education significantly predicted their children’s educational attainment.”.] Summary/Quotes [In Spain, the researchers came across evidence of intergenerational transmission of education, implying that parents’ level of education is a strong predictor of their children’s educational attainment. This relationship was most evident in low-income families. The authors claim that “Our results Hypothesis [The researchers hypothesized that there would suggest that education can serve as a potential pathway to escape poverty, as parental education positively predicts children’s educational attainment” be a positive relationship between parental (Duarte et al., 2018).] education and children’s educational Citation [Duarte et al., 2018] attainment, and that this relationship would be stronger in lower-income families.] Variables [IV – Parental education; DV – Children’s educational attainment] Link [https://doi.org/10.1080/13504851.2017.13520 73] Utility [This article is connected with my research topic as it investigates the effect of parent’s education on their children’s outcomes, which is the essential part of my hypothesis. The sample and setting may not be directly relevant to my proposed study, but it nonetheless provides some important tips on the prospective function of education in breaking the cycle of poverty. Moreover, the research can also be used as a good source for the intergenerational transmission of education.] Annotation #4 Reference [Duncan, G. J., Ziol-Guest, K. M., & Kalil, A. (2010).

The authors say, “These findings illuminate the enduring consequences of early-childhood.] Utility [This article is very related to my topic, for it discusses the possible persistent impact of poverty on many life outcomes. The sample is also alike to my sample of low-income group. The current research can be used to back up the argument that poverty has a general influence on people’s lives and can lead to negative outcomes in various areas.] Annotation #5 Abstract [This study aimed to examine the mediating role of parenting behaviors and Reference maternal and paternal well-being in the relationship between poverty and child [Kaiser, T., Li, J., Pollmann-Schult, M., & Song, A.

The sample is also close to my suggested low-income families sample. This research can be employed in the favor of the notion that poverty can impact parenting behaviors and parental well-being and that these factors can affect children’s behavior.] Annotation #6 Abstract [“Context: Poverty is a well-established risk factor for the development of Reference behavior problems, yet little is known about how timing of exposure to [Mazza, J.

The [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article /abs/pii/S0277953617300461] study data from the Quebec Longitudinal Study of Child Development of 2120 children were used. Poverty is categorized into three time periods: 3-5 years, 8-10 years, and 13 years and above. At age 13, teacher reports on behavioral issues like inattention, disobedient, or physical violence are written. The research uses linear regression with a structured way of estimating the relationship between behavior problems and poverty level in these time periods. It compares several lifecourse models (sensitive periods, an interaction of risk factors, social mobility) to find the best-fitting model. The data show that, children who spent their childhood in poverty are more likely to have behavioral problems when they are in their early adolescence. The risk accumulation model helps in understanding hyperactivity and adverse reactions. As for physical aggression, it is related to the sensitive period between 0-3 years. The study therefore highlights the necessity of the early intervention and the long-term assistance for the pregnant women who live in the poverty so that they have the chances to control their behavioral problems in adolescence. Quotes: • “Findings revealed that association between poverty and behavior problems across the lifecourse, spanning from birth to 13 years of age, correspond to both accumulation of risk and sensitive period models.” • “This study supports not only the cumulative effect of poverty over time but also the long-lasting effects of early poverty, and in particular identifies a sensitive period within early childhood years that may compromise mental health in early adolescence.” • “Long-term support to pregnant women living in poverty is likely to reduce behavior problems during childhood and adolescence. Also, this paper emphasizes the importance of policies to reduce child poverty by boosting income and service delivery to poor families with children and even in a high-income country like Canada.” Utility [This article provides the reader with invaluable insights into the link between childhood poverty and behavior problems in early adolescence. The Quebec Longitudinal Study of Child Development, the same sample size and longitudinal design of my proposed study reflect the individual aspects that make the importance of the study the more relevant. The structural analysis that is used to model lifecourse programs provides an analytical framework which I think can be applied. Also, resulting risk models and the period of maximum vulnerability can be used to target intervention strategies. In general, this article is very useful for me in terms of my literature review and the direction of my research methods.] Annotation #7 Reference [Midouhas, E. (2017). School poverty effects on trajectories of child behaviour: Do they depend on gender and ethnicity? Health and Place, 46, 281–292.] Citation [Midouhas,2017)] Hypothesis [The researcher hypothesized that school socio-economic composition would predict internalizing and externalizing problems in children, with a greater intake of disadvantaged pupils associated with more problems both concurrently and longitudinally.] Variables . [IV: School poverty DV: Behavior trajectories Moderators: Gender, ethnicity] Link [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.healthplace.2017.06. 009] Abstract [This study examined English school poverty effects on trajectories of child behavior across ages 3, 5, 7 and 11, and the moderating roles of ethnicity and gender. School poverty predicted internalizing and externalizing problems concurrently, and internalizing problems longitudinally. In poor schools, girls had a steeper incline in internalizing problems, but made greater reductions in externalizing problems. Ethnic differences were also found in the association between school poverty and child adjustment. Gender and ethnic background may influence how a child responds emotionally and behaviorally to the composition of peers at school.] Summary/Quotes [The study focuses on the influence of poverty on childhood behavior by addressing gender and ethnic diversity. It shows that poverty at school predisposes both inwards and outward symptoms, girls having steeper increases in internalizing problems in poor schools but better reduction in externalizing problems. However, in schools with higher concentrations of social services and other ways of coping with poverty, these ethnic differences can be reduced, and all students may do better. Nevertheless, there are some limits such as in the way school poverty is measured and other family factors driving school choice that remain unconsidered. However, the results emphasize the necessity of taking individual demographic factors into account when assessing the effect of school composition on the emotional and behavioral adjustment of children, which will provide information with regard to related policies and interventions. Quotes: • “School poverty predicted internalizing and externalizing problems concurrently, and internalising problems longitudinally.” • “Girls in ‘poorer’ schools had a steeper incline in internalising problems across the primary school period. Moreover, girls in schools with high proportions of FSM-eligible pupils made greater reductions in their externalising problems over time than boys.” • “Some minority ethnic children showed fewer problems than White children in high poverty schools. Bangladeshi and Black African children had fewer behavioural problems in high poverty schools. Children from Indian and Pakistani ethnic groups attending a school with a higher proportion of poor children had a faster rate of decline in both internalising and externalising problems over time.”] Utility [The article is full of crucial information relevant to my investigation as it closes the gap between my topic and the gender and ethnicity issues. The sample, derived from the Millennium Cohort Study, is very extensive and includes ages that are considered relevant. I am to employ the techniques at my disposal such as the multi-level regression models and confounder adjustments in my study design. In addition, the study results disclose a new dimension to how school environment affects students’ adjustment by using demographics, which needs to be considered. Overall, this article provides useful ideas and strategies that will increase the depth and the value of my literature review and research methodology.] Annotation #8 Reference [Roos, L.

The findings revealed that poverty among the children in their early life was linked to inadequate physical health, poor cognitive development, and low social-emotional wellbeing. Moreover, children in chronically poor families suffered more from the adverse effects of poverty. These results underscore the importance of policies and interventions aimed at poverty effects on child development.] Summary/Quotes [The researchers discovered that early childhood poverty was linked to worse physical health, deficits in cognitive development, and lower social-emotional well-being. Pronounced were the negative effects for children living in consistently poor families. The researchers stress the necessity of policies and interventions that will help to tackle the effects of poverty on child development.] Utility [This article is very pertinent to my subject in that the succinctly analyzes, at length, the effects of poverty on a number of developmental outcomes in the early years. The study also considers the length of time that poverty lasts, and this is an element that I can use into my own research. In addition, the results also draw attention to the need for policies and measures to mitigate the harmful consequences of poverty on child development, that could be implemented in my own work.] Annotation #9 Abstract [The current research goal was to explore the possibility and potential Reference [Shernoff, E.
